About this episode
Blake Murphy is joined by Sportsnet’s Joe Siddall to preview Max Scherzer’s start tonight vs. the Royals and discusses his trust level in the bullpen and Alejandro Kirk’s hot bat. Afterwards, Anne Rogers (25:46) of MLB.com breaks down the Royals, who’ve won 8 in a row, Seth Lugo, and the pitching staff along with Salvador Perez stealing bases. Following that, former Blue Jay Vernon Wells (45:31) analyzes Brett Bateman’s centerfield tendencies, Dylan Cease’s dominance, and his view of the infamous John Gibbons-Ted Lilly scuffle. Lastly, Craig Goldstein (1:12:38) of Baseball Prospectus provides thoughts on the Astros parting ways with their general manager, the AL Wild Card race and when Shohei Ohtani could pitch again.
